I bought these for my Porsche after reading the Consumer Reports ratings and review which gave the Valeo top marks.
Ive always used Bosch or RainEx wipers, and had recently started using the contoued-curved blades that arent supposed to have pressure points at the hinges.
These outperform any wiper Ive ever used. The rear window on my 944 has convex, concave, and flat surfaces which makes for a difficult for any wiper to completely clear, but the flexibility of these is by far the best Ive used so far.
Installation for the rear wiper on all other blades Ive ever gotten required the use of an adapter that was nearly impossible to find. These wipers mounted perfectly and easily to both front and back.
The item that pushed this from four stars to five is the price. This is near the lower-middle price point, but they work better than blades that cost twice as much.
These are now my go-to wiper blade.
I live in California. Needless to say, 90% of the time I use my wipers its to clean my glass. Ive had wipers in the past that couldnt hold up to the dry heat, especially because Im forced to leave my car outside all the time without any cover.
I would install previously purchased wipers (Rain-X) and theyd cause streaks and become flimsy all too fast despite the fact that they looked nice. I did not use Amazons suggestion for what type of wipers to use on my car.
Instead, I consulted my manual and inspected what I already had on. Valeo wipers themselves are sturdy. However, the installation is where I have to knock off a star.
The packaging decides to pull an IKEA and leave you with vague, horribly angled pictures of how to install the wipers. I was confused that my wipers came with adapters, which took me a while to figure out that I wasnt supposed to be using.
For idiots like me who dont do this all too often, it would have been nice to see instructions of why I would need an adapter and how Im supposed to install the wipers without having to Google it.
I obviously figured this out within a few minutes of trying to jam the unnecessary adapter into my wipers, but I could have been spared that embarrassment.
Not much to say as wiper blades are simple things. The Valeo 600 series do the job very well. Look nice, wipe clear, are very quiet, dont fail, and last a long time.
This is my third pair. First lasted 4 years! Second pair 3 years 5 months+ and got a 2 inch tear from some sap stuck them to the car and caused the tear when the wipers were turned on but they still were working well enough aside from that.
Both pairs on a car that is a street car out in the elements and not garaged at all so the wipers impress me and are some value. So, of course I looked up my old order and clicked "buy again".
Update 08/23/15: Best wiper blade I have ever owned. I have had the same first set on my car for a year and 8 months now and they are still wiping clean and quiet.
Simpy an incredible quality and quiet, smooth blade. I bought a backup set after I had used these blades for about six months just to have on hand and they are still in their manufacturers packaging.
:-) Update: Was out driving around doing Christmas shopping today in cold wet to very wet conditions. The blades performed perfectly. A very clean and quiet wipe whether the glass was dry, misted are very wet.
Still will have to see how durable they are over time. I dont expect them to last forever but the better part of a year would be nice. Original review: I cannot tolerate any kind of noise from my wipers.
No sqeaks, vibrations, chattering, you name it. I had new blades when I replaced my windshield. For some reason after the windshield install the new wiper blades started chattering, bumping across the windshield making a terrible noise.
The wetter the windshield the worse the noise and chattering. This seemed counter to previous experiences with bl...
